Here are a few of my favoites of the moment. Its so hard to narrow it down to five, but I did it. There’s probably 50 products I can’t live with out, but these are some products I REALLY can’t live with out. If any of you have a product that you think should be included, please show us the light! We love to hear from you!

1. Giorgio Armani Liquid Foundations and face products. Armani foundations are little bottles of fantastic. They feel light on your skin and still give the most amazing coverage. They photograph beautifully, too. Luminous Silk, Hydro Glow, Fluid Sheer, Master Primer, and Face Fabric have to tie for my number one or they would take up the whole top 5!
 
2. Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion - This is why I love Kisha! We agree on almost everything. This is my favorite eye shadow primer of all time. Its light weight, long wearing, and doesn’t crease. If you don’t have it yet, you need it asap!
 
3. Body Butter from The Body Shop - I know its not technically a cosmetic product, but its something I can’t live with out. I bathe in it! Its great to keep in your kit for photo shoots and fashion shows to give your model’s legs healthy glow.
 
4. Lash Blast mascara by Cover Girl - That’s right. Its from the drug store. It makes my lashes long and full - I LOVE it!
 
5. Nixie Ultra Shine Lipgloss - BEAUTIFUL! Smooth, not sticky and ultra shiny. They smell really yummy, too. Come check them out at our studio if you want to try one on!
Until Next Time,
Ashley

Kisha’s Top 5 Favorite Products

Friday, March 27th, 2009 | Posted in Product Previews | 5 Comments »

I’m surfing the net tonight as usual and coming across so many new and innovative products that I can’t wait to try. So, that made me think that I should share my “must have products” with you. I like to think that these products just sets me free! My top 5 fav’s changes often because I tend to get bored with products quickly. It’s not because I don’t think the product is amazing, but because there’s so much creativity with makeup, I just get inspired to try something new. It helps me stay on top of things too:-)  However, these products have been on my radar for a while!! So here goes…

1. Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion - LOVE THIS STUFF!!!! It’s like butter from my bread!!! It creates a smooth surface on the eye lid before applying eyeshadow, does not add a lot of texture or color, prevents eyeshadow creasing, and increases staying power!!! www.urbandecay.com

2. MAC Fix + - Feels like a cold glass of water after a long workout (you know that kind that quenches your thirst when you haven’t worked out in a long time). It hydrates the skin, refreshes makeup, and believe it or not it sort of wakes up your skin! I like to use this before I apply my moisturizer. www.maccosmetics.com

3. Urban Decay 24/7 Glide On Eye Pencil - Say goodbye to the liner that runs with or without your tears. I’ve always had a problem with runny eyeliner…that was until I found my new friend 24/7 because that’s how long it stays around. Very smooth, creamy, but long wearing. This one is a keeper. www.urbandecay.com

4. Nixie Ultra Shine Lipgloss - It’s simple-non-sticky, great shine, beautiful colors, and great color payoff.  It’s likes a rich bottle of nail polish for your lips. We love this soomuch that you can get these at themakeupLAB!

5. Mally Beauty Shimmer, Shape, & Glow Face Defining System - This is your everyday red carpet treatment. You get 3 Products in one: You get your highlight, contour, and a little shimmer. What more does a girl need than to have her cheeks glowing more than the sun. You got it!!!! www.mallybeauty.com

Now, I have this love affair with Mascara, but I haven’t quite found the one I’d to marry. So if you have a special chemistry to any, please share them with us and tell us why you love it!!

Until next time…Smooches

It’s only been 2 days since the site has launched and we’ve gotten many emails and responses to show congrats and support. We are both super excited about the lab and just doing makeup.  The fact that all of you are excited makes it even better. We look forward to making many beautiful faces and just having some fun! We just wanted to say thank you for being so supportive. If there’s anything that you would like to know, talk about, or see on the blog, just let us know. We can’t wait to see you:-) Stay tuned….we’ve got lots of good stuff coming.

Smooches
